almost time to say "see you later".

Say cheese!! We never ended up going to the GC and Sedona today but still had a great day with a dinner party and loads and loads of shopping. Not long left till it's time to head back to London so you will all be spared from my constant updates from here .. Lol. I just can't help it .. When I like something, I like to share it :) Starting to feel a bit sad now aswell .. Have really had a great time here which makes me not want to go back at all .. and on top of that I hate goodbyes. Guess it'll have to be a "see you later" instead ... which means it's time to start saving for another trip to here!

Good night America .. Ta-da for now! / P. x

happy bday auntie!

Treated the family to some persian food as a early birthday gift for our aunt Di. Yumyum! Sedona and the Grand Canyon tomorrow morning so time to go to bed!

Thanks everyone for a great day! Nitenite / P. x

i have a stash of newbies.

proud owner of all of these and many more .. everything from turqouise to rubies! yum!!

dinner out in tempe.

turquois, burgundy red & monocromania!

beads galore indeed!

OMG!! I stepped in to heaven for 2 hours today and came out with the world biggest grin. My auntie took me to a huge bead store in Phoenix today and I knew, from the first second, that I was going to spend a lot of money in there. The beads were absolutely fantastic and the staff were so, so helpful and polite. I have been to quite a few bead stores during the past years but this one had a whole different atmosphere .. I absolutely loved it! And OMG to all the prices too .. it's so much cheaper than London.

Thank you Beads Galore and auntie for a great day and yayy for all my beautiful findings!! I wont show them now but you'll see what I mean once I'm done with them. They are so amazing! 

Love / P. x

i'm sad right now.

We decided to stay in Phoenix and not go to LA this Friday. I am happy I get to spend more time with my family .. but I am extremely sad that I won't be able to meet my best friend. I guess you can't have the cake and eat it too .. (does that even make sense in this situation?).

Sorry my love .. Hopefully we get to meet up soon anyways. I love you bestie ♥ / P. x

wildflower.

Good morning London and good evening USA! It's so hard to keep in touch with everyone from here because of the time differences .. but it's all good because when everyone's getting ready to go to bed the sun is shiiiiining here! Oh yeah!

Had a very relaxing day today .. Spent the whole morning with my sis by the pool and even encouraged the rest of the family to join us too! We then decided to take a trip to Chandler to get my dad a case for the iPad2 we got him for his birthday (speaking of .. haven't put any images up from that night yet .. hmm). Anyways .. like usual I ended up spending bucks and eating good food. One place I wanted to mention in particular is a "bread shop" called Wildflower. It's actually a restaurant where they bake all their breads fresh in store .. and the selection of soups, salads and sandwiches are so, so yummy! I ended up getting a thai coconut chicken soup with a Wildflower house salad. The best bit is the way the serve the soup!



even the butter is wipped and all fluffy!


So if you ever come across a Wildflower make sure you pop in and try their menu .. Doesn't look too exciting from the outside but I promise you that it is. Two thumbs up! / P. x
